Where to Watch The Mastermind
- cultfilmliker19 de diciembre de 2025lol. Yeah, Josh O’Connor best actor of 2025 easy Kelly going full auteur (including editor) trying to get that Anora fame. Gotta say, never been a HUGE fan of her color palettes tho. The amount of beige I FEEL (let alone see) in her films is just overwhelming. ALL THAT SAID, it still looks nice. Matthew Maher makes anything he’s in 10x better. Just an incredible talent. John Magaro & Gaby Hoffman are a perfect movie couple imo
- Mr Walker7 de enero de 2026What starts as a 70s style HOT ROCK heist caper of 5th rate criminal losers complete with jazzy score soon loosens into a minimalist FRIENDS OF EDDIE COYLE type character study. As she has done so well before, Kelly Reichardt Directs the film to be at constant odds with expectations. To take the slower more measured observation of a moment in time that may not be plot driven but rather character, mood or for aesthetic context. You can smell, taste and feel the period, its lived in and textured without pastiche. This film veers outside the traditional perspective to become leisurely hyper-focused on a familiar central character made grounded and mundane. Josh O'Connor is James Blaine Mooney, a man on the run but not in a hurry. So comfortable in his narcissism that he uses and discards any that he pulls into his orbit with no more than a shrug. In one of the most difficult performances of the year O'Connor plays it all with a skilfully calculated indifference that makes the character an intellectual curiosity and an emotional void that cares not for our sympathy, hatred or opinion. An aloof amoral parasite that remains distant. This is not someone looking for redemption or forgiveness only the next exploitable situation.....but he is neither a villain nor a criminal mastermind.
